    Difficult situation with a Condo, advice appreciated...

    It sounds as if it would not hurt to upgrade your panel anyway; it sounds way under and might pay for itself should you decide to sell. Which segues to my suggestion....Move! The only reason the streets are flooded E.V.s is because of apartment dwellers with your same problem. I think a lot...

    FYI - Managing Power during an Outage

    You could have saved some power by putting your freezer food outside.

    Disaster Averted!!

    Sure, I think he should be more "woke"; probably go to some sensitivity training and learn the words to "Up With People". I am pretty sure it scared him straight. And anyone who has been driving for anytime has had a near miss due to a momentary lapse but I don't think they need to go to a...

    Would you return this 2020 3 Performance?

    I would agree with Randy S against returning at this point. Though the $2800 discount seems tepid (if you had bought new, how much of a hit would you take to resell it with 2200 miles?), it is supply and demand I guess. The bumper/paint issue may bite you come trade in time but if the CarFax...

    Strategy on Long Drive

    I found this thread very informative. My '17 MS has only a 230 mi. range and is my only :-( with the car, but of course, not so much I am willing to trade up $$$. I would say that the SC network is why Tesla will continue to dominate the sector, but until "range anxiety" is better assuaged...

    I have to ask; what is the purpose of the copyright disclaimer, please?

    Lifetime Energy Consumption for my Model S in Boston Area after 4 years

    Of course, but that is a payback of a different color.

    Why Do Electricians Charge So Much To Install EV Outlets?

    This is like asking why a Five Guys hamburger cost 5 bucks when it is comprised of only $1 worth of food. Some folks envious of your ability to purchase multiple Teslas might question how you justify your income. :):)

    Is Tesla service deteriorating as they scale??

    You can have it "good", "cheap" or "fast"....pick two.

    Car Wash Mode - Instructions!

    What's Wrong with this Picture? Your $60K car is in the driveway....so what is so valuable in the garage? :*)

    Car Wash Mode - Instructions!

    I suppose if they did it every week it would become rote, but I think I would have a hard time remembering all that if I only did it a couple of times a year. I have no idea how to get my S in neutral, so this has me wondering....

    Informal Warranty Rules

    My 17'MS has had only one mechanical issue requiring service. The glove box door facia fell off. Using the app, a mobile tech was dispatched and it was reattached free of charge. At that time I also thought my tire pressure indicators has gone berserk, showing low pressure in alternating...

    Germany Rules on Using Tesla Screen Wiper Controls

    "If it ain't broke, don't fix it". For the memorable past, wiper controls have pretty much been standard. I believe, imho, they have become pretty much a reflex action, the same as directional signals, and don't need to be refined or complicated.

    Tesla Says Cybertruck Will Be Built at New Factory in Texas

    Shouldn't take much of an edit to read: Made in Texas By Mexicans.
